• Strong understanding of operational PFI contracts and asset lifecycle management.
• Experience in technical surveys, condition assessments or similar would be advantageous.
• Strong analytical and report-writing skills.
• Technical background in Building Surveying, Facilities Management, Building Services, Asset Management, Engineering or a similar discipline.
• Comfortable working with clients and travelling nationally for site-based work.
